What is a CUS file?

CUS files mostly belong to Game editor. Overview: A CUS file is a custom data file. Most are used for game character customization, but the extension is also used in other fields.
Key Uses:
  • Game Customization: This file usually holds data that changes a game character's looks or settings. Some games, like Elsword, use CUS files for these purposes. You can find more details on the Elsword site here.
  • Automotive Testing: In some cases, CUS files act as a CANoe User Set. These files store data for vehicle network communication tests, as seen in Renault CAN data files. More information is available from the vendor here.
  • Voice Control Customization: Another use is to hold data for Amazon Alexa Custom Skills. Developers use these files for defining skill settings. Visit the Alexa developer site here for details.
  • Compressed Imaging Data: Sometimes, CUS files are compressed files (using 7z compression) that store ultrasound or DICOM images. To open these, the 7-Zip tool is often used. Check out 7-Zip here for more info.
    • How to Open and View:
    FilExt.com notes: If you have a CUS file, use the program that created it. For game customization files, launch the game or its editor. For CANoe and voice control files, use the specific development software. If the file is compressed, try opening it with 7-Zip. Always make a backup before making changes.

    Each file has a definite file format, that is, how the stored data is arranged in the file.
